The Sealey Windscreen Installation Tool Kit (WK21) is designed for mechanics and DIY enthusiasts working on older vehicles that utilize plastic or rubber inserts for windscreen installation. Its key benefit is providing specialized tools for effective seal manipulation and secure fitting, ensuring a professional finish. A potential caveat is its specific application to older vehicle types, which may limit its utility for modern vehicles with different sealing mechanisms. This 6-piece kit includes essential components for precise windscreen fitting, featuring dual lipping tools, a hex key for adjustments, a comfortable grip handle, and multiple eye sizes.

This tool is specifically designed for older vehicles that use plastic or rubber inserts for their windscreen seals, rather than modern vehicles that rely on adhesive bonding.
The kit includes 10.5mm and 17mm eyes. Select the size that best matches the thickness and profile of the rubber or plastic seal you are working with. Experimentation may be needed to find the optimal fit.
No, this tool is designed solely for the installation of windscreens with specific types of seals. It is not intended for removal.
The dual lipping tools are used to effectively manipulate and guide the rubber or plastic seal into the corresponding channel on the vehicle body and the windscreen, ensuring a snug and watertight fit.
The kit includes a hex key for assembly and adjustment. While comprehensive instructions for windscreen fitting are not always included with such specialized tools, the design facilitates direct use with basic knowledge of automotive glass installation.
Clean the tool after each use with a mild degreaser and a soft cloth. Ensure it is dried thoroughly and stored in a dry place to prevent rust and maintain its condition.
The rubber grip is integrated into the plastic handle for durability. It is not designed to be replaceable, but its construction aims for long-term wear resistance.
Ensure the correct eye size is selected for the seal type. Use the lipping tools carefully, applying steady pressure. Check for any debris or obstructions in the seal channel or on the seal itself.
Verify that the eye component is securely fastened to the handle. Use the provided hex key to tighten any loose connections. Ensure the lipping tools are correctly positioned and engaged.
Apply a small amount of rubber lubricant or soapy water to the seal and the channel. Work the seal in sections, using the lipping tools to guide it gently into place. Do not force the seal.
Clean the affected area with a fine-grade steel wool and apply a light coating of penetrating oil. Ensure the tool is dried thoroughly after cleaning and stored in a dry location.
Setup: The Sealey WK21 is designed for immediate use. Ensure the appropriate eye size (10.5mm or 17mm) is securely attached to the tool handle using the provided hex key for adjustments. The lipping tools are ready for immediate engagement with the windscreen seal.
Compatibility: This tool is specifically designed for windscreens on older vehicles that feature plastic or rubber insert seals. It is not intended for modern vehicles that use adhesive bonding for windscreen installation. Always verify the type of seal your vehicle uses before attempting installation with this tool.
Care: After use, clean the tool components with a mild degreaser and a soft cloth to remove any residue. Dry thoroughly to prevent corrosion. Store the kit in its original packaging or a protective case in a dry environment to maintain its condition and longevity. Periodically check that the hex key fits snugly and that all components are free from damage.
